"Whenever I prepare for a journey I prepare as though for death. Should I never return, all is in order."
Katherine Mansfield

There are several Things to Do in Bodhgaya while you are here on a historical trip. An urge to face death many times becomes associated with a sacred place as Gaya in India. It is also thought by Hindus that if the last rights after death are performed in Gaya, the departed soul goes to heaven. Bodhgaya, situated very near to Gaya, however, does not essentially talk of death, but by virtue of its spots related to Buddha and Buddhism obviously reveals the essence of Nirvana (salvation) through a magnificent historical atmosphere.
